Although weather was a factor on Saturday, opening fishing weekend ended sunny and nice conditions for fishing!

You found most boats looking for calmer water - a lot hung around the river inlet and many found success early in the morning in the shallows.

As the day progressed, folks moved to the breaklines on Otter Tail Lake and they continued to find fish.

Shiners and a Lindy Rig were the ticket for most fishermen as water temps were in the low 50's.

The weekend ended with a sunny Sunday and most fish caught were in the 15 to 25 foot depth range. As the temps rise. the shiners began running today (Monday) so we hope to see a greater supply of them.

This Friday and Saturday, the Wild 104 tournament happens. We look forward to hosting another great year for them.

As an eviction crisis has seemed increasingly likely this summer, everyone in the housing market has made the same plea to Washington: Send money — lots of it — that would keep renters in their homes and landlords afloat.
